A Chihuahua is in animal custody after leading police on a chase across the Oakland-San Francisco Bay Bridge.
The California Highway Patrol tweeted the small black dog “led us on quite a chase” Sunday and posted a video of it running furiously on the upper level of the bridge while being trailed by a motorcycle officer.
After it was captured, the Chihuahua was taken to a San Francisco animal shelter where staff members named it Ponch, after the CHP Officer Frank Poncherello played by Erik Estrada in the TV series “CHiPs.”
A spokeswoman for the city’s Department of Animal Care and Control said the dog wore a tag decorated with a human skull, but it had no identification. Deb Campbell said the dog was recovering from its misadventure.

Email me [email protected] I will take the dog if no owner is found. I have one and he is as good a dog as you would want. Fly him out here on Delta in the cabin, NOT IN THE BAGAGGE compartment. Put him in a small carry on dog vinyl cage and let a flight attendant watch over him and ship him to me in Orlando, FL. I will take good care of him.
That was the biggest Chihuahua I’ve ever seen! I had them growing up. My biggest weighed about 5 pounds. The smallest 2 pounds.
